    Cursed Mountain Preview

    -Use Tibetan Prayer movements to exorcise demons.
    -Enter the ‘Bardo’ or Tibetan Spiritual Realm to see otherwise invisible ghosts.
    -Combat mechanics are why developer Deep Silver chose Wii.
    -Wanted a survival horror that wouldn’t let you clutch the controller close, saying that the open armed movements make you feel ‘very vulnerable,’ which adds to the experience.
    -The mountain itself offers exciting challenges, including a balance act that requires you to tilt the remote for balance as you cross a narrow passage.

    Nintendo Power Lit Preview

    -Developer of Contra 4 and Shantae (Way Forward)
    -’Built around the concept that light is life and darkness is death.’
    -Play as ‘Jake,’ a high school student whose school is overrun by shadowy creatures that are too dark to see, but can be sensed crawling and scratching everywhere!
    -Jake and his girlfriend, the only survivors, are in contact only by cell phone.
    -Thirty levels and five ‘puzzle oriented’ bosses (all former school staff, now horrible monsters)
    -Use control stick for movement
    -Carve paths via light sources to escape
    -Wii remote is flashlight
    -Switch from top down view to 3d behind back perspective.
    -Turn on lamps, break windows and more to light the way and survive.
